Pics Of the View From Our Deck...

I haven't put up "view" pics in awhile, so some recent pic picks from the past month. View is from our deck here at the Mtn Joint, ~5,000 ft elevation, overlooking HillbillyHeaven.
Same view, as usual, but mornings and evenings offer up a slightly different and remarkable view, nearly every day. Thanks for looking!
BR, mD

No, it's the "fancy assed DSLR camera" app for the iphone... makes it look like a canon or nikon product.

Thanks for the Looks and, the kind words...just another set of "average views" here at the MtnJoint.

Yes, LM is correctomundo: Canon EOS 40D with the cheap azz kit lens, EFS 17-85mm, and a Hoya Skylight 1B Haze filter.
I do have the camera settings cranked to "Landscape", with Sharpness at 6, Contrast at 0, Saturation at 2, Colortone at 0.

A Soaker here for MemDay; it's been raining since the middle of last night.
Glad I don't have to sit around "waiting for the 3 day weekend", .
Thank, mD

PS, on the Iphone Apps comments. My current/very old (1G,2G?) cell
phone doesn't have a cam or, any other "features".

To someone who is putting together their official business plan documents, and hoping for an "earlier than average" retirement, that is very inspirational. Thanks, David!
